Reggie After
Reggie Before
We incubated some chicken eggs to get up close and personal with these little creatures. I thought none were going to hatch. Then one morning I started hearing cheeping out of an egg. I had no idea you could hear them inside their eggs way before they hatch. One lone chick worked all day and night, but couldn't make it out of the egg. I know you aren't supposed to help them out, but I couldn't help myself. It sounded so forlorn in there! I started pulling away the shell a little at a time. I never expected the thing to survive. I was astounded every day to find it alive and kickin.
I named it Reggie. It finally appeared Reggie would live to see another day and another. We bought 4 friends and Reggie is thriving. We're still not sure if Reggie is Reggie or Reggilina. What do you think?
